Leslie,
I noticed you said that Elizabeth m Charles Grant, my husbands grandfather did tell us before his death that his mother said that there was Grant/Frazier linage on the side of Roy Alonzo Torey... just FYI, maybe with your help we could put this together. I will be glad to pull my records out and share them with you. I do know that an article came out shortly after WWI, which stated "Roy Torey visiting relatives in Haverhill, was recently discharged from service with a Canadian Regment." This was from a newpaper in Boston.
Thanks,
Lisa Torey

Hello,
Just curious about some things. My name is Lisa Torey. I am married to Timothy Torey of Wa state. His family line can only be traced to Roy Alonzo Torey of Canada.
My husbands grandfather, was Roy Farnsworth Torey born in Edmonton Alberta Canada. Roy Alonzo m Dorothy Farnsworth (unfortuantely I do not have the dates currently in front of me). We at one point thought that Roy Alonzo came from the descendant line of Alexander George Torey from Scotland in the mid 1800's but the dates do not match up.
Roy Alonzo served in WWI with 16th Calgary Highlanders, but unfortunately his military records did not turn up any birth info, he died somewhere in the midwest US. My husbands grandfather (Roy Farnsworth) died in 1998 and unfortunately did not turn up any information on his father...any help would  be greatly appreciated. We do believe that this line of Torey's is also connected somehow with the Torey's in Massachuesetts and New Hampshire, as Dorothy Farnsworth Torey was from the line of William Farnsworth of Washington, New Hampshire.
Sincerely,
Lisa Torey
